Launching CCM during
Covid-19?
During these challenging COVID-19 times for patients, providers and practices — it’s obvious that what used to be “normal” patient care protocol is now being replaced by something completely different. Both patients and providers are looking for new ways to stay connected with each other and in-the-loop when the traditional in-person visit options are not possible and when faced with the pervading uncertainty of when the return-to-normal will occur.
Along with implementing tele-health initiatives in this environment, many practices are also realizing that starting Chronic Care Management programs can also provide significant quality-of-care value at this critical time.
Benefits of Chronic Care Management include:
Medsien has helped numerous practices implement CCM programs during this challenging time — and notably with no additional administrative work for the practices.
Implementing a CCM program can secure a valuable new revenue stream for the practice during a time when in-person billing revenue has dropped significantly
Patients enrolled in CCM programs feel more connected to their provider and a change in their health conditions is identified earlier when in-person visits aren’t feasible.
CCM can provide another valuable touch point — one of many modes of communication to serve patients without seeing them in the office. A monthly quick check-in over the phone can provide a quick indicator to spot a future problem.
Perhaps most importantly, enrollment in a CCM program strengthens the relationship between the patient and the practice which improves patient satisfaction and quality of patient care.
